(???? – )

Con Turner was a UK fan from Chester-le-Street in County Durham active in the 1950s and 1960s. He was a sometime editor of Gestalt, the clubzine of the North-East SF Society. He was a member of the Cytricon in 1955 and Loncon, the 1957 Worldcon.

He is only listed in Ron Bennett's Directory of Science Fiction Fandom for 1955 and 1956[1] but he was still around to attend the Yarcon in 1966. He was also a member of Tynecon in 1974. That said, in Skyrack #92 (September 1966), Ron Bennett was wondering what had happened to him.

  1. The 1956 listing is for Con and Norma Turner suggesting his wife may also have been a fan.
